Home First Launched at the Hospital

Home is where the heart is.

That's the philosophy behind the Home First Program.

Leslie Brown is the head of patient care at the local hospital and says

Home First allows older patients to recuperate at home, rather than a hospital bed.

Brown says they have been rolling out the Home First program over the past couple of months.

Kenora and Thunder Bay are the first communities in the region to start it up.
